'Hail Mary' Not Going Forward At CBS, Being Shopped Around

CBS has passed on Hail Mary. An early frontrunner, the buddy PI pilot starring Minnie Driver eventually lost momentum at the network. But the project has been a favorite at producing studio Warner Bros TV, and I hear that it is now being shopped around to other networks. Produced by Joel Silver, Hail Mary centers on Mary Beth (Driver), a suburban single mom in Atlanta who teams with KZ (Brandon T. Jackson), a streetwise hustler, to solve crimes.
